If you need to use some kind of silly “link management” program, you have many problems as well.

My suggestion? Forget about links. Create good content that others will link to that content “naturally”. Forget about pagerank as well as NO ONE knows the real PR but Google. Matter of fact; uninstall ALL your toolbars you have loaded up right now.

In summary; concentrate on your sites and making them better.

Not sure how the heck I found this place, but whenever I find blogs or sites that seem to be listening to wrong “gurus”, I feel I need to help out. I’m not talking about you “Terry”, but about who you may be listening to.

Excellent article. I have never asked anyone by email for a link unless I know them (a handful of times).

If you have got to resort to this tactic something is very wrong.

Just think of the amount of time these jokers are wasting when they’d be better served out in the blogosphere making new contacts and getting links

I think that its of course your priority whether or not you would want to reciprocate and return the favor by linking their site to your web site.BUt lets always remember that link exchanges is not one way-thats the reason why its called exchange right?

For some reason I’ve gotten about 10 of these link exchange requests just in the last week. I thought it was another new “scam” thing…. maybe not?

This is some excellent advice, Lynn. Hopefully the people who really need to read it actually do.

Great post Lynn.I never get any eMails asking for recip links.LOL.After all my blog is just 1 month and has two more months to have a page rank.So they won’t ask me.They don’t ask because we have a good content.They ask by seeing our PR.PR has a great capability to attract the eyes of such people.I have seen this in technorati.If your blog has less authority and less PR,no one will come forward to link to you except few.Even those who have PR zero also won’t link to you.If you have great numbers in authority and PR,then so many blogs will come forward expecting a recip link.Good Analysis by you Lynn.
